Scholarly journals are more credible than general periodicals. When looking for a scholarly journal keep these criteria in mind:

• The journal is published by an institute, university, or professional association.
• The journal uses an editorial board comprising subject experts who review and recommend changes in the articles before they are published.
• Authors are experts in their fields which is often evident from their affiliations.
• The language of the article is technical and may contain terminology specific to the discipline.
• The text of the article often includes graphs, charts, tables, and a statement of research methodology.
• The articles contain bibliographic references to research sources.
• The articles are often indexed in a specialized index.
